Early childhood is the most important stage of development when the foundation for lifelong learning is created.
It is a time of growing self-awareness and intense exploration of the world around us.
It is a time when essential neurological pathways are created that will determine not only our capacity to survive, but to grow into healthy, able, creative and productive individuals.
At Kay School we provide developmentally appropriate opportunities and experiences that will not only prepare our young students for academic success, but also awaken and enhance lifelong skills that are critical to our changing world: creativity, critical thinking, innovation, communication, collaboration, curiosity and empathy.
Kay School provides a safe, loving and caring environment for children ages two-and-a-half through Kindergarten, as well as for school-age children through middle school in our before and after school programs.
The School has been named for a preschool teacher whose ability to connect with young children, nurture their natural capacity to learn, and give them confidence and love of learning, inspired all who knew her.

child development center. It has six large, well-equipped
classrooms that provide comfortable, well lit, and abundant space
for child-centered activities. A large, well-equipped playground
and nearby treed and park areas provide ample opportunities for
outdoor study and play. Our project-based, integrated curriculum
offers science exploration, block building, visual arts, story
dramatization, music and movement, manipulatives and dramatic play,
and small group work in language arts and math. It encourages a
relationship between teacher and student that embraces the innate
curiosity and rich potential of each child. Classes are small

supervised play. For older children in the after school program,
homework and tutoring support are provided as well as a variety of
enrichment activities.
